Dear Primary Families,
What a week! It was wonderful to welcome students back to school on Sunday morning and to see so many smiles as friends reconnected and our new students joined the ABIS community.
Thank you to all the teachers and classroom assistants who worked so hard to make the first week such a success, and thank you to you, our parents, for preparing your children so well for their return. And of course, a special thank you to the students for settling in so positively and beginning the year with such enthusiasm.
Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, 2nd September, from 5:00–6:30 pm for our Meet the Teacher Evening. This event is a valuable opportunity to visit the school, explore the learning areas, and meet the teachers working with your child(ren) this year. You will also receive important information about our curriculum, the PYP program, timetables, classroom routines, and homework expectations. Each grade-level presentation will be offered twice, allowing you to attend more than one if needed. In addition, you will have the chance to meet Arabic and specialist teachers and ask any questions you may have about their programs.
You will soon be receiving further details about our After School Activity (ASA) program, which will begin the week of Sunday, 7th September. A wide variety of activities will be available, and we encourage you to talk with your child(ren) about the ones they may enjoy.
Once again, thank you for your support this week. I wish you a restful and enjoyable weekend.
Best regards,
Matthew
Primary Team Lead
